STANDARD SIGNALS AS PER COSWP TO BE USED.ONLY ONE COMPETENT PERSON TO SIGNAL THE WHOLE OPERATION.WHOLE OPERATION TO BE SUPERVISED BY A RESPONSIBLE OFFICER.RAISE GANGWAY.THE DERRICK TO BE PLUMBED OVER THE WEIGHT.TAKE WEIGHT SLOWLY.LIFT THE LOAD SLOWLY, SWING IN THE CORRECT POSITION AND LOAD ON THE APPROPRIATE POSITION.CONTROL SWING BY STEADYING STAYS.CONSIDER EMERGENCY ACTION IF VESSEL DEVELOPS HEAVY LIST (MORE THAN CALCULATED) DURING THE OPERATION.TAKE PROPER LASHING, CONSIDERING HEAVY WEATHER ON THE VOYAGE.

BEST PLACE TO LOAD BEST PLACE IS WHERE EXTRA STRENGTHENING IS PROVIDED BY:

LONGITUDINALS, PLATE FLOORS.SOLID FLOORS OR TRANSEVERSES.EXAMPLES: ALONG LONGITUDINAL CENTER GIRDER, LOWER HOLD ABAFT MACHINERY SPACE.LOAD DENSITY NOT TO BE EXCEEDED.IN THE HATCH, IN PREFERENCE TO ON DECK BECAUSE OF LARGER GM.

WHAT PRECAUTIONS WILL YOU TAKE BEFORE ENTRY INTO DRYDOCK?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT SAR?GENERAL:

• FOR SURFACE AND AIR FACILITIES TO SEARCH PATTERNS AND PROCEDURES MUST BE PRE-PLANNED SO SHIPS AND AIRCRAFT CAN CO-OPERATE IN CO-ORDINATED OPERATIONS WITH THE MINIMUM RISK AND DELAY.• STANDARD SEARCH PATTERNS HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED TO MEET VARYING CIRCUMSTANCES.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF OSC

• THE OSC SHOULD OBTAIN A SEARCH ACTION PLAN FROM THE SMC VIA THE RCC OR RSC AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. NORMALLY, SEARCH PLANNING IS PERFORMED USING TRAINED PERSONNEL, ADVANCED SEARCH PLANNING TECHNIQUES, AND INFORMATION ABOUT THE INCIDENT OR DISTRESSED CRAFT NOT NORMALLY AVAILABLE TO THE OSC. HOWEVER, THE OSC MAY STILL NEED TO PLAN A SEARCH UNDER SOME CIRCUMSTANCES. SEARCH OPERATIONS SHOULD COMMENCE AS SOON AS FACILITIES ARE AVAILABLE AT THE SCENE. IF A SEARCH PLAN HAS NOT BEEN PROVIDED BY THE SMC, THE OSC SHOULD DO THE PLANNING UNTIL AN SMC ASSUMES THE SEARCH PLANING FUNCTION. SIMPLIFIED TECHNIQUES ARE PRESENTED BELOW.• MODIFY SEARCH PLANS BASED ON CHANGES IN THE ON-SCENE SITUATION, SUCH AS:

� ARRIVAL OF ADDITIONAL ASSISTING FACILITIES� RECEIPT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION� CHANGES IN WEATHER, VISIBILITY, LIGHTING CONDITIONS

ETC.• IN CASE OF LANGUAGE DIFFICULTIES, THE INTERNATIONAL CODE OF SIGNALS AND STANDARD MARINE NAVIGATIONAL VOCABULARY SHOULD BE USED.• ON ASSUMING THE DUTY, THE OSC SHOULD INFORM THE APPROPRIATE CRS OR ATS UNIT AND KEEP IT INFORMED OF DEVELOPMENTS AT REGULAR INTERVALS. • THE OSC SHOULD KEEP THE SMC INFORMED AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND WHENEVER THE SITUATION HAS CHANGED.

♣ PLANNING THE SEARCH DATUM

• IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO ESTABLISH A DATUM, OR GEOGRAPHIC REFERENCE, FOR THE AREA TO BE SEARCHED. THE FOLLOWING FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED:

� REPORTED POSITION AND TIME OF THE SAR INCIDENT � ANY SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION SUCH AS DF BEARING OR SIGHTINGS� TIME INTERVAL BETWEEN THE INCIDENT AND THE ARRIVAL OF SAR FACILITIES� ESTIMATED SURFACE MOVEMENTS OF THE DISTRESS CRAFT OR SURVIVAL CRAFT, DEPENDING ON DRIFT ( THE TWO FIGURES FOLLOWING THIS DISCUSSION ARE USED IN CALCULATING DRIFT.) THE DATUM POSITION FOR THE SEARCH IS FOUND AS FOLLOWS:- DRIFT HAS TWO COMPONENTS: LEEWAY AND TOTAL WATER CURRENT - LEEWAY DIRECTION IS DOWNWIND - LEEWAY SPEED DEPENDS ON WIND SPEED- THE OBSERVED WIND SPEED WHEN APPROACHING THE SCENE MAY BE USED FOR ESTIMATING LEEWAY SPEED OF LIFERAFTS BY USING THE GRAPH FOLLOWING THIS DISCUSSION ( PERSONS IN THE WATER (PIW)

HAVE NO LEEWAY WHILE LIFERAFT STABILITY AND SPEED VARY WITH OR WITHOUT DROGUE OR BALLAST.)- TOTAL WATER CURRENT MAY BE ESTIMATED BY COMPUTING SET AND DRIFT WHEN APPROACHING THE SCENE- DRIFT DIRECTION AND SPEED IS THE VECTOR SUM OF LEEWAY AND TOTAL WATER CURRENT� DRIFT DISTANCE IS DRIFT SPEED MULTIPLIED BY THE TIME INTERVAL BETWEEN THE INCIDENT TIME, OR TIME OF THE LAST COMPUTED DATUM, AND THE COMMENCED SEARCH TIME� DATUM POSITION IS FOUND BY MOVING FROM THE INCIDENT POSITION, OR LAST COMPUTED DATUM POSITION, THE DRIFT DISTANCE IN THE DRIFT DIRECTION AND PLOTTING THE RESULTING POSITION ON A SUITABLE CHART.

TOTAL WATER CURRENT (KTS)

DATUM 2

DETERMINING A NEW DATUM ( DRIFT DISTANCE = DRIFT SPEED X DRIFT TIME)

• PLOT THE SEARCH AREA: � DRAW A CIRCLE CENTRED ON DATUM WITH RADIUS R.� USING TANGENTS TO THE CIRCLE, FROM A SQUARE AS SHOWN BELOW� IF SEVERAL FACILITIES WILL BE SEARCHING AT THE SAME TIME, DIVIDED THE SQUARE INTO SUB-AREAS OF THE APPROPRIATE SIZE AND ASSIGN SEARCH FACILITIES ACCORDINGLY.

EXPANDING SQUIRE SEARCH (SS)

SECTOR SEARCH (VS)

• MOST EFFECTIVE WHEN THE POSITION OF THE SEARCH OBJECT IS ACCURATELY KNOWN AND THE SEARCH AREA IS SMALL.• USED TO SEARCH A CIRCULAR AREA CENTRED ON A DATUM POINT.

• DUE TO SMALL AREA INVOLVED, THIS PROCEDURE MUST NOT BE USED SIMULTANEOUSLY BY MULTIPLE AIRCRAFT AT A SIMILAR ALTITUDES OR BY MULTIPLE VESSELS.• AN AIRCRAFT AND A VESSEL MAY BE USED TOGETHER TO PERFORM INDEPENDENT SECTOR SEARCHES OF THE SAME AREA.• A SUITABLE MARKER ( FOR EXAMPLE, A SMOKE FLOAT OR A RADIO BEACON ) MAY BE DROPPED AT THE DATUM POSITION AND USED AS A REFERENCE OR NAVIGATIONAL AID MARKING THE CENTRE OF THE PATTERN.• FOR AIRCRAFT, THE SEARCH PATTERN RADIUS IS USUALLY BETWEEN 5 NM AND 20 NM.• FOR VESSEL, THE SEARCH PATTERN RADIUS IS USUALLY BETWEEN 2 NM AND 5 NM, AND EACH TURN IS 120º, NORMALLY TURNED TO STARBOARD.

FURTHER ACTION ON COMPLETION OF INITIAL PHASE

• THE OSC WILL NORMALLY CONSIDER THE INITIAL PHASE TO HAVE BEEN COMPLETED WHEN, IN THE ABSENCE OF FURTHER INFORMATION, SEARCHING SHIPS HAVE COMPETED ONE SEARCH OF THE MOST PROBABLE AREA.• IF AT THAT STAGE NOTHING HAS BEEN LOCATED, IT WILL BE NECESSARY FOR THE OSC TO CONSIDER THE MOST EFFECTIVE METHOD OF CONTINUING THE SEARCH.• FAILURE TO LOCATE THE SEARCH OBJECT MAY BE DUE TO ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING CAUSING:

Ž ERRORS IN POSITION OWING TO NAVIGATIONAL INACCURACIES OR INACCURACY IN THE DISTRESS COMMUNICATIONS REPORTING THE POSITION. THIS IS ESPECIALLY LIKELY TO APPLY IF THE POSITION OF DATUM WAS BASED ON AN ESTIMATED POSITION USING INCOMPLETE INFORMATIONŽ AN ERROR IN DRIFT ESTIMATIONŽ FAILURE TO THE SEARCH OBJECT DURING THE SEARCH ALTHOUGH IT WAS IN THE SEARCH AREA. THIS IS MOST LIKELY TO OCCUR IF THE SEARCH OBJECT IS A SMALL CRAFT, OR SURVIVORS IN THE WATERŽ THE CRAFT HAVING SUNK WITHOUT A TRACE. OTHER THAN THE CASE OF A SMALL SHIP OR CRAFT IN ROUGH WEATHER, EXPERIENCE HAS SHOWN THAT THERE ARE USUALLY SOME TRACE, EVEN IF ONLY DEBRIS OR OIL PATCHES.

NAVIGATIONAL INACCURACIES OF SEARCHING SHIPS

• THIS IS MOST LIKELY TO APPLY WHEN NAVIGATIONAL FIXES CANNOT BE OBTAINED. IN THIS SITUATION, THE OSC MAY:

Ž RE-SEARCH THE SAME AREA, ALLOWING FOR ADDED DRIFT DURING THE TIME ELAPSED SINCE CALCULATING LAST DATUM;

Ž EXPAND THE MOST PROBABLE AREA, AFTER ALLOWING FOR ADDED DRIFT, AND SEARCH THE EXPANDED AREA; OR Ž EXPAND THE AREA MORE IN ONE DIRECTION THAN ANOTHER, DEPENDING ON CIRCUMSTANCE AND INFORMATION AVAILABLE.

• DETERMINE A NEW PROBABLE AREA BASED UPON ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RECEIVED.• WHERE INFORMATION IS RECEIVED TO INDICATE THAT THE ORIGINAL DATUM WAS GROSSLY INACCURATE, DETERMINING AN ENTIRELY NEW PROBABLE AREA WOULD BE ADVISABLE.• A SMALL SEARCH OBJECT, WHICH IS EASILY MISSED IN THE DAY TIME, MAY BECOME VISIBLE AT NIGHT TIME IF IT SHOWS LIGHTS, FLARES, OR OTHER PYROTECHNICS.• THE OSC SHOULD, THEREFORE, CONSIDER USING SURFACE CRAFT AT NIGHT TO RE-SEARCH AREAS COVERED BY DAY.• IT IS GOOD PRACTICE WHEN SEARCHING FOR SURVIVORS IN SMALL CRAFT, IN SURVIVAL CRAFT, OR IN THE WATER, TO STOP THE ENGINES OCCASIONALLY AT NIGHT AND IN RESTRICTED VISIBILITY BY DAY TO LISTEN FOR CRIES FOR HELP.

EVIDENCE OF DISTRESSED CRAFT FOUND

• IN SOME CASE, THE SEARCH MAY PROVIDE EVIDENCE OF THE DISTRESSED CRAFT WITHOUT SURVIVORS BEING FOUND.• THIS EVIDENCE MAY PROVIDE INFORMATION FOR A RECALCULATION OF DATUM AND REVISION OF THE SEARCH AREA.• A LOW-LYING, HALF-SUNKEN LOADED SHIP OR AIRCRAFT MAY DRIFT MORE SLOWLY THAN A FLOATING SURVIVAL CRAFT, EVEN IF A DROGUE IS USED.• A DERELICT MAY DRIFT AT A CONSIDERABLE ANGLE OFF THE PREVAILING WIND DIRECTION.• WHEN WRECKAGE IS LOCATED IT USUALLY CONSISTS OF DEBRIS, POSSIBLY WITH AN OIL SLICK.• SHOULD THIS HAVE COME FROM THE DISTRESSED CRAFT, SURVIVAL CRAFT WILL USUALLY BE FOUND DOWNWIND FROM THE DEBRIS.

Q: WHERE WILL YOU GET THE INFORMATION REGARDING SEARCH PATTERN.

A: IN IAMSAR.

SEARCH PATTERNS

SEARCH PATTERN WILL DEPEND ON THE FOLLOWINGS:

• SIZE OF AREA TO BE SEARCHED.• TYPE OF DISTRESSED CRAFT.• SIZE OF DISTRESSED CRAFT.• METEOROLOGICAL VISIBILITY.• CLOUD CEILING.• TYPE OF SEA CONDITIONS.• TIME OF DAY.• ARRIVAL TIME OF DATUM.

NORMALLY THREE BASIC SEARCH PATTERNS ARE USED. NAMELY:• PARALLEL SWEEP SEARCH • EXPANDING SQUARE SEARCH• SECTOR SEARCH

PARALLEL SWEEP SEARCH (PS):• USED TO SEARCH A LARGE AREA WHEN SURVIVOR'S LOCATION IS

UNCERTAIN.• MAY BE USED WITH SINGLE OR MULTIPLE VESSELS.• COMMENCE SEARCH POINT (CSP) IS ONE OF THE CORNERS OF THE

SEARCH AREA.• CSP MAY BE A CORNER OF A SUB AREA IF A LARGE AREA IS TO

SEARCH.• IT IS ½ TRACK SPACE INSIDE THE RECTANGLE FROM EACH OF THE

TWO SIDES FORMING THE RECTANGLE.• ORIENTATION IS GENERALLY IN THE ESTIMATED DIRECTION OF

DRIFT OF THE SEARCH OBJECT.

PARALLEL SWEEP SEARCH BY ONE SHIP:

PARALLEL SWEEP SEARCH BY TWO SHIPS:

EXPANDING SQUARE SEARCH (SS):• MOST EFFECTIVE WHEN LOCATION OF OBJECT IS KNOWN TO BE

WITHIN CLOSE LIMIT• CSP (COMMENCE SEARCH POINT) IS ALWAYS DATUM.• FIRST LEG USUALLY ORIENTED INTO THE WIND.• SUITABLE FOR USE BY A SINGLE VESSEL OR BOAT• USED WHEN SEARCHING FOR PERSONS IN WATER.• SEARCH OBJECT WITH NO LEEWAY.

SECTOR SEARCH (VS):

• MOST EFFECTIVE WHEN LOCATION OF SEARCH OBJECT IS ACCURATELY KNOWN.

• SEARCH AREA TO BE SMALL.• USED TO SEARCH A CIRCULAR AREA.• CENTER IS DATUM POSITION.• DATUM MAY BE MARKED BY DROPPING A SUITABLE MARKER,

SUCH AS A LIFE BUOY• SEARCH RADIUS IS NORMALLY 2 - 5 N. MILES FOR VESSELS.• EACH TURN IS 120°, NORMALLY TO STARBOARD.• SECOND SEARCH LEG IS 30º OFF FROM THE FIRST LEG.• CSP (COMMENCE SEARCH POINT) IS ONE SIDE OF THE CIRCULAR

SEARCH AREA.

• ENSURE ALL STAGING REMOVED. DISCONNECT ALL UTILITIES. REMOVE GANGWAYS.

Q: WHAT IS CRITICAL INSTANT?A: AS THE WATER IS PUMPED OUT THE VESSEL’S TRIM WILL REDUCE UNTIL THE SHIP LANDS FORE AND AFT ON THE BLOCKS. THE INSTANT BEFORE THIS HAPPENS IS KNOWN AS THE CRITICAL INSTANT.

Q: WHAT PRECAUTION YOU WOULD TAKE WHILE DOCKING WITH CARGO?A: 1. LEAVE SOME WATER IN THE DOCK SO THAT THE VESSEL IS STILL DISPLACING WATER, THEREBY REDUCING THE UPTHRUST FROM THE BLOCKS.

2. INCREASE THE NUMBER OF LINES OF BLOCKS SUPPORTING THE VESSEL SO AS TO SPREAD THE LOAD. ( N.B. BLOCKS SHOULD ALWAYS BE LAID IN LINE WITH LONGITUDINAL BOTTOM GIDERS).

Q: WHAT IS DECLIVITY?A: THE DECLIVITY OF THE DRYDOCK IS THE SLOP OF THE BOTTOM OF THE DOCK TOWARDS THE ENTRANCE ( THIS ASSIST IN THE DRAINAGE OF THE DOCK).

WHAT IS CRITICAL PERIOD?THE INTERVAL OF TIME BETWEEN THE VESSEL TOUCHING THE BLOCKS AFT AND LANDING FORE AND AFT IS KNOWN AS THE CRITICAL PERIOD SINCE THE VESSEL IS LOSING STABILITY THROUGHOUT THIS PERIOD.

SURVEYS IN DRY DOCK

DOCKING SURVEY INTERVAL NOT EXCEEDING 2½ YEARS.SURVEYOR NORMALLY EXAMINES FOLLOWING ASPECTS:

CONDITION OF UNDERWATER HULL INTEGRITY OF HULL OPENINGS CONDITIONS OF RUDDERS AND STABILIZERS. ANCHORS AND CHAINS

ADDITIONAL SURVEYS

WHEN VESSEL IS GROUNDED, COLLIDED, DAMAGED DUE TO FIRE OR ANY ACCIDENT.

MAJOR REPAIRS OR MODIFICATIONS DONE. ISSUE OF ENDORSEMENTS OR EXEMPTION CERTIFICATES.

OTHER STATUTORY SURVEYS IF REQUIRED: ANNUAL SURVEY PERIODICAL SURVEY INTERMEDIATE SURVEY. RENEWAL SURVEY.

8.6. WHAT IS CRITICAL MOMENT/CRITICAL INSTANT? WHY IS IT CALLED CRITICAL INSTANT? VIEW ANS

CRITICAL INSTANT

CRITICAL MOMENT:

IT IS THE MOMENT JUST BEFORE THE VESSEL TAKES BLOCKS OVERALL.

THE UPTHRUST OF BILGE BLOCK ACTS ON THE STERN FRAME.

THE UPTHRUST IS MAXIMUM AT THIS MOMENT.

IT CAN BE CALCULATED BY FOLLOWING FORMULA:

PMAX = MCTC X T / L

MCTC = MOMENT TO CHANGE TRIM BY 1 CM.

T = TRIM IN CM.

L = DISTANCE OF CF FROM AP.

IT IS CALLED CRITICAL INSTANT BECAUSE MAXIMUM LOSS OF GM OCCURS AT THIS INSTANT.

IF GM BECOMES NEGATIVE, THE SHIP MAY CAPSIZE OR SLIP FROM BLOCK.

8.7. WHAT IS CRITICAL PERIOD? VIEW ANS

CRITICAL PERIOD:THE PERIOD SINCE THE KEEL FIRST TOUCHES THE BLOCK UNTIL THE

VESSEL TAKES BLOCKS OVERALL. AN UPTHRUST IS CAUSED BY THE BLOCKS, DENOTED BY "P".P AT ANY INSTANT CAN BE CALCULATED BY THE FOLLOWING FORMULA:

P = TPC X CHANGE IN MEAN DRAFT IN CM.P IS MAXIMUM AT THE INSTANT BEFORE VESSEL TAKES BLOCKS OVERALL. IT CAN BE CALCULATED AS:

P = MCTC X T / L { T = TRIM IN CM, L = DIST OF CF FROM AP}DUE TO THE UPTHRUST, THE VESSEL REDUCES ITS GM.THE G MOVES UP, THEREBY GM IS REDUCEDM MOVES DOWN TO M', THEREBY GM IS REDUCED.SHIFT OF G (CENTER OF GRAVITY) OR M (TRANSVERSE METACENTER) MAY BE CALCULATED AS:

GG' = (P X KG)/(W - P)

MM' = (P X KM)/W

THE DANGER IS, DUE TO SUBSEQUENT LOSS OF GM, THE VESSEL MAY LOSE POSITIVE STABILITY AND MAY CAPSIZE.MAXIMUM LOSS OF GM TO BE CALCULATED BEFOREHAND.IT IS DANGEROUS IF NEGATIVE GM OCCURS IN DRY DOCK. (REASONS).

IF NEGATIVE GM OCCURS IN DRY DOCK:

THE VESSEL WILL LOSE POSITIVE STABILITY. SHE MAY CAPSIZE. SHE MAY SLIP OFF FROM THE BLOCKS.

WHAT IS STANDING MOOR?

Standing moor, ordinary moor, dropping moor, straight moor:

Vessel required to moor with bridge along the dotted line. Stream ahead. Port anchor-5 shackles, stbd anchor-4 shackles.

Procedure:

Head to stream or wind. When both are present, head to one has stronger effect.

With sufficient headway, take vessel to position 1. Position-1 is roughly 5 shackles plus half ship's length beyond line AB. Let go port anchor. The vessel drifts downstream, render port cable to nine shackles, the sum of two

lengths. She is brought up on her cable. Then the starboard anchor is let go at position-2. Vessel then moves to the position by rendering or veering the starboard cable and

heaving in four shackles on the riding cable. Engines may be used to reduce stress on the windlass.

Running moor, flying moor:

Vessel required to moor with bridge along the dotted line. Stream ahead. Port anchor-5 shackles, starboard anchor-4 shackles.

Procedure:

Head to stream or wind.

When both are present, head to one has stronger effect. Let go starboard anchor on run, when vessel is 4 shackles and half of ship's length

(1). The cable is rendered as the vessel moves upstream. The cable is not allowed to be tighten, as bow will cant to starboard. The cable is rendered or veered 9 shackles and vessel moves to position-2. In position-2, port anchor is let go. The vessel moves stern. Five shackles weighed on lee (starboard) cable and five shackles veered on riding

cable. The vessel is then brought up on her riding cable at position-3.

Advantages of mooring:

Vessel occupies little swinging room. Vessel turns almost to her length about stem. Scopes can be pre-adjusted for the prevailing strength of wind or stream. Scope of each cable is estimated in the same way as single anchor.

Disadvantages:

Lee anchor has no value to ship if headwind increases or vessel drags. Risk of getting a foul hawse.

Preference:

I will prefer standing moor. Because:

Safer More control on the ship. The anchor is let go after vessel stopped. There is no possibility of damage due to anchoring at headway.

5.5. What special instruction you give to OOW when the ship is at anchor in running/ standing moor? View ans

Special precautions:

Maintain a constant watch to prevent foul hawse. Determine foul arc and clear arc. Vessel should always swing to clear arc on each tidal change. Use engine to give vessel correct sheer. Keep eye on the weather. Know the times of tide change

WHAT IS WHITE LIST( AS PER IMO & STCW)?A LIST OF COUNTRIES FOUND TO BE CONDUTING THEIR MARITIME TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF STCW 95

THE WHITE LIST IDENTIFIES THE COUNTRIES THAT HAVE DEMONSTRATED A PLAN OF FULL COMPLIANCE WITH THE STCW CONVENTION AND CODE AS REVISED IN 1995. THE WHITE LIST WAS DEVELOPED BY AN UNBIASED PANEL OF "COMPETENT PERSONS" AT THE IMO. THE CRITERIA USED TO DEVELOP THE LIST INCLUDED WHAT SYSTEM OF CERTIFICATION (LICENSING) EACH ADMINISTRATION WOULD HAVE, THE PROCESS OF REVALIDATION FOR CERTIFICATES, TRAINING CENTER OVERSIGHT, PORT STATE CONTROL, AND FLAG STATE CONTROL.

Q. WHAT HAPPENS IF A COUNTRY IS NOT ON THE "WHITE LIST"?

A. SINCE THERE IS A WHITE LIST, IT WOULD STAND TO REASON THAT ANY COUNTRY NOT ON THE WHITE LIST COULD BE CONSIDERED "BLACK LISTED". THIS IS NOT THE CASE. THERE IS NO ACTUAL BLACK LIST ALTHOUGH VERY OFTEN THAT IS HOW NON-COMPLIANT COUNTRIES ARE DESCRIBED.

PORT STATE CONTROL AND FLAG STATE CONTROL BOTH PLAY A ROLE IN HANDLING A NON-WHITE LISTED COUNTRY. FOR INSTANCE, IF A VESSEL IS FLAGGED BY A NON-WHITE LIST COUNTRY, WHEN IT DESIRES TO ENTER A WHITE LIST PORT, IT CAN BE DENIED ENTRY, DETAINED OR INSPECTED VIGOROUSLY.

ON THE OTHER HAND, IF A MARINER HAS A CERTIFICATE OF COMPETENCY (LICENSE) FROM A NON-WHITE LIST COUNTRY, THEY WILL MOST LIKELY BE DENIED A CERTIFICATE OF EQUIVALENCY, THEY WILL BE REJECTED AS A VIABLE MANNING SOLUTION FOR WHITE LIST FLAGGED VESSELS, AND THEIR SEA TIME AND TRAINING MAY EITHER BE HIGHLY SCRUTINIZED OR NOT ACCEPTED AT ALL TOWARDS A COC FROM A WHITE LIST COUNTRY.
